The other thing is, let's see what we could buy in coach on a SEA-LAX flight....

Movie: $6
3 drinks: $15
Cheese plate and turkey wrap: $18
Leg room in exit row/first row: $15

So that's $54- as opposed to a $50 seat with a wider massage chair and better food. Yeah, clearly VX was underpricing F on SEA-LAX.
And VX is changing prices constantly. When I first flew them (3/18) a movie cost $8, some drinks cost $6, a cheese plate cost $12, a turkey wrap cost $9, and the same legroom. However in your scenerio the person buys two meals (cheese plate and turkey wrap) as opposed to one. Still $46 as opposed to $50. Good call by VX.
